Holiday Shopping Guide: Best Boxed Sets

If you’re looking to offer up a truly splashy gift this holiday season, may we recommend one of these boxed sets or special editions for the YA lover in your life? These are all available now.

The Twilight Saga: White Collection

Modeled after a set released in the UK last year, this set of The Twilight Saga books are in paperback with gorgeous white covers. I fell in love with these when the UK versions first came out — and am thrilled to see them offered now in the U.S. The set includes Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn, and The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner.

Beautiful Creatures Series Boxed Set

The movie adaptation of the first book in this addictive series comes out in February, so now is the perfect time to introduce a new reader to Beautiful Creatures, or give this gorgeous set to the ultimate fan in your life. Includes all four books in the series in hardback.

John Green Boxed Set

Featuring all four of Green’s best-selling YA solo novels in hardback, and packaged in a nerdfighter-worthy artsy box. The books include: Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, An Abundance of Katherines, and The Fault in Our Stars. Perfect for a Green fan looking to add this limited edition boxed set to their collection — or a great way to spark the interests of a new fan.

Matched Trilogy Boxed Set

Now that Ally Condie’s dystopian series has concluded, get a gorgeous set of all three books in one hardcover boxed set: Matched, Crossed, and Reached.

Divergent and Insurgent Boxed Set

The third and final book in this series won’t come out until late next year, and a movie adaptation is in development. So if there’s someone you know who hasn’t gotten hooked on this dystopian series yet, this is the perfect way to entice them. The first two books are featured in hardcover in this set.

Or pick up the new special edition of Insurgent, featuring a shiny cover, faction tattoos, a poster, and the short story from Four’s perspective (previously available only in e-book format).

Uglies Series Boxed Set

Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies series has been a hit amongst YA readers since it came out several years ago. But newer YA readers may not have discovered these masterpieces quite yet. Packaged together in paperback with last year’s newly designed covers, this box set makes a great gift for fans of dystopian lit.

Hush, Hush Saga Boxed Set

Patch and Nora’s story has finally concluded with this year’s release of Finale by Becca Fitzpatrick. Fall in love with these characters all over again, or introduce a new reader to them, with this hardcover boxed set featuring all four books in the series.

The Mysterious Benedict Society Complete Collection

For the voracious middle grade reader in your life! Help them discover the world of The Mysterious Benedict Society in this hardcover boxed set featuring all of the books in this whimsical series. Eager young readers will quickly devour these books.

The Secret Series Complete Collection

Pseudonymous Bosch may have concluded his Secret Series last year, but new middle grade readers can discover his puzzling world in this paperback boxed set featuring all five books.
